Jewish holocaust scholars don't like it when you call the USSR fascist
https://jewishcurrents.org/the-double-genocide-theory
That sucks. USSR by definition was a fascist regime so I don't really care what they want
How do holocaust scholars relate to the USSR being facist or not? Facist ≠ Nazi though fascism leads directly to the kind of ideas the Nazis hold
Okay have fun with the holocaust trivialization I guess.
Saying that Facists are Facists is trivializing the holocaust? How's that work? The fact Nazis were Facists doesn't trivialize the fact that other groups are also Facists. Facists like to kill people that's kind of their whole ideology. Fascist ideology leads directly to the kind of ideas the Nazis had.
That… wasn’t the point of Fascism. Frankly, I’d be surprised if you could name the countries or regions where the Italian Fascists committed their massacres.
The point of Fascism was to forcibly save capitalism from the concessions that the lower classes won. I recommend listening to this: https://lemmy.today/post/315713
Yeah despite how much I want to fight back I know I'll just be wasting my energy
Fascism is when you oppose fascism.
Do you even understand what the words you're using mean?

Incredibly I don't think that the USSR is "as bad as the Nazis" nor did I say anything like that. Is that why you morons are calling me a Nazi? Do you guys need a paragraph explaining that yes I do think the Nazis are bad?
I'm not trying to win fuckn internet points I'd still be on reddit if I got turned on by that kinda shit. You people are.
The USSR was a dictatorship, but not a fascist dictatorship.
Stalin tried to resign 3 times and wasn't allowed to. Weird thing for a dictator to not be allowed to do.
Ignoring everything else wrong about your one sentence, a dictatorship needn't be helmed by a single person. Brazil was a dictatorship from the 60s to the 90s, and had 6 different presidents during that time.
Okay, what about the whole soviets and sharing power with trade unions thing? What about their innovations in participatory democracy. The USSR were hyperdemocratic, even on war footing, at least until destalinization happened and the bureaucracy started taking hold.
Lol I get the feeling that kinda opinion isn't popular round here
